The Hidden Waterfalls of Rewa

Let's talk about home today. Rewa, a small city in the north eastern part of the Madhya Pradesh, home to the majestic white tigers and the dynasty of Baghels. In addition to these, the city is famous for its cuisine and most importantly its People. Well, I would just say, we are built different (no offense and no pun intended). When it comes to visiting places, we travel miles and miles to see them and experience them with our own eyes but in search of these places we often miss out on what is right next to us. we may be living within 50 kms of those places and have never ever visited them. 

As evident by the title, today I am going to take you on a journey with me to the Hidden Waterfalls of Rewa. The city is home to four magnificent waterfalls and when they are in full flow, my gosh they are a sight to behold. If you are in Rewa and if it has rained properly, do not miss them!

1. Bahuti Waterfall 

Bahuti is the highest waterfall of Madhya Pradesh falling from a staggering height of 650 ft. It is at a driving distance of 70 kms from the city and the sheer size of the waterfall will make you think how tiny you are. When I visited the place, it was covered in the heavy spray of the fall itself but then it revealed itself and that was one hell of a sight. I call it the Indian Niagara!



2. Keoti Waterfall

Situated at a distance of 35 kms from the city and falling from the height of 322 ft. Keoti is another beautiful waterfall for a one day excursion. There are plenty of vantage points to get a full view of the stellar waterfall but one has to be very careful always. Additionally, there is a fort beside the waterfall, if you have some time in your hands you can explore that too.



3. Chachai Waterfall

Chachai is the second highest waterfall in Madhya Pradesh falling from a height of approximately 430 ft. It is situated at the distance of 40 kms from the city and it provides an amazing view when it is in full flow. There is a vantage point which offers a full frontal view of the waterfall.


4. Purva Waterfall

Purva is the smallest of the group, falling from a height of 200 ft but it is the loudest and most intense one, you can hear it from far. At a distance of 40 kms, it is cozily tucked in the valley creating a thunderous echo and huge amount of spray so, be prepared to get drenched. 



If this has intrigued you, do plan for Rewa, there is so much to explore and experience, you will most definitely get a different vibe here and if I am in the city, I would be more than happy to tag along and show you the sights.

Till then, Happy Travelling!

Ciao!
